Can the Dems clinch it this election cycle?

I say 80/20 that they will.

I hope not! I want them to have a majority in the Senate, but I'm terrified of any party having that kind of setup.

I don't think it will happen because the GOP supporting 527s will shift their resources to the down ticket races as I believe they will now give up on McCain and focus on that so they can hope for filibusters especially on Supreme Court nominees.

Could be, but I'm not too sure that is not going to be too little, too late.

For the sake of our country, no party should ever have a filibusterproof majority in the Senate.

I hope it happens so people can see what a mess Democrats have gotten this country into.
